Resident Evil 7 is a horror game that has jumped on the bandwagon of “run and hide” survival horror and added their own twist. And they’ve done well. The unsettling and intimate environment, the crazy “Texas Chainsaw” family, and the realistic scenery all combine into one to create a truly immersive and terrifying experience.

Resident Evil 7: Biohazard is a game that really struggles to find the new voice that Resident Evil so needs as a franchise. It’s incredibly well designed and executed, and you’re not going to find a game that does VR better than this one.

Just like when Resident Evil 4 reinvented the series, Resident Evil 7 has done just the same. Resident Evil 7 is an absolutely terrifying and thrilling survival horror game that starts off strong and never lets up until the final credits start rolling.

There has not been a Resident Evil that we have managed to connect with in a long time. Resident Evil 7 Biohazard has changed all that. All the puzzles, all the scares, and the fantastic feeling you get while playing the game. It is a horrific, in all the right ways.

The Resident evil series which lives more than one generation of consoles and not going to finish and ongoing. The story originates from a gas station, where the protagonist stands before the mirror, agitated by a message from his dead girl who asks him to go to town Silent Hill... but no.

In terms of tone, viciousness, subtext, and sheer oppressive fear, Resident Evil 7 is a beast unlike its predecessors.

Going into Resident Evil 7 I was skeptical that it would not fit into the series. It felt like a new direction that didn’t capture what I had come to know it for. After playing through it, I couldn’t have been more wrong. This game epitomizes what a Resident Evil game is, and has revitalized a series I grew up adoring.

Resident Evil 7 feels as terrifying as it does modern, all while returning the series to its roots. It hits some familiar bumps along the way, but this is the best this series has felt in years.

Resident Evil 7 biohazard grabs the crown of best survival horror back for the series that started the genre. It hearkens back well to the old games in great ways. At times it feels too streamlined for more casual players, but hopefully, this installment will serve as proof that there’s an audience for more games like it. By moving away from the action-oriented gameplay of the last few games, Capcom has brought us one of the best Resident Evil games ever made.

Resident Evil 7 is exactly what the series needed to keep it moving forward, and honestly, it’s what the horror genre needed to keep it fresh and exciting. Hopefully other developers become fueled by the success and praise Resident Evil 7 has been receiving to kick start a revival of this beloved genre, which has been quite lacking as of recently. Capcom fully has my attention again, and while the game isn’t perfect, it is absolutely the best Resident Evil game we’ve seen in the last decade.

While Resident Evil 7 does have flaws, on the whole it is the best entry into the franchise in over a decade. The gamble definitely paid off

Despite the change in perspective, Resident Evil VII is a triumphant return to form, delivering the tense action and classic B-movie camp that made the series iconic.

With Resident Evil 7, Capcom finally dares to take a risk-paying venture, dusting at the same time the old elements of the series, giving us a true survival horror experience in a first person view. I rarely experienced the first hours of a game in such a tensed way, surrounded by morbid scenes, with a steady dose of riddles, and a sense of rhythm that constantly put you under pressure. Capcom succeeded in marrying the old with the new when it comes to mechanics but it is not free from any reproach. The fighting elements are too simplistic, and the plot runs out of breath in the end, trying almost too hard, but it is still an interesting experience, and probably one of the best VR games there is on the PlayStation 4 console.

Rather than being something that's just inspired by what came before, Resident Evil 7 will likely be inspiring the horror genre directly for a long time to come.
